13. PMP Exam Changes in January 2021: What will be Different? • The exam is still based on the PMBOK® Guide Sixth Edition. • Two factors lead to changes in the PMP Exam: • updates to the PMBOK® Guide, and (2) changes in the PMP Examination Content Outline. • The PMP Examination Content Outline (ECO) only changes when PMI commissions a Role Delineation Study (RDS). • These exam changes are the result of the recent RDS and 2019 ECO changes. More about PMP Exam 2021

14. What is changing on the exam? • The new PMP Exam Content Outline includes two changes that will have a significant impact on the PMP Exam. First, the ECO states that half the questions will represent predictive project management approaches and the other half will represent agile or hybrid approaches. Second, the domains and their related tasks have changed. • The 2015 ECO organizes the questions by the 5, familiar domains (Process Groups). • The 2019 ECO groups the questions by 3 domains.

27. Module Two • Determine Appropriate Project Methodology/Methods and Practices • Plan and Manage Scope • Plan and Manage Budget and Resources • Plan and Manage Schedule • Plan and Manage Quality of Products/Deliverables • Integrate Project Planning Activities • Plan and Manage Procurement • Establish Project Governance Structure • Plan and Manage Project/Phase Closure Starting The Project

28. Determine Appropriate Project Methodology / Methods And Practices Task One

29. Enablers • Assess project needs, complexity, and magnitude. (ECO 2.13.1) • Recommend project execution strategy (e.g., contracting, finance) (ECO 2.13.2) • Recommend a project methodology/approach (i.e., predictive, agile, hybrid) (ECO 2.13.3) • Use iterative, incremental practices throughout the project life cycle(ECO 2.13.4)

30. Deliverables and Tools Deliverables Tools Project Overview Statement Create survey Expert judgment Project business case Meetings Project Implementation Plan Agile practice guidelines Focus groups Workshops Create SMART objectives Knowledge of classic PM and agile practice Project Integration

31. Life Cycle Selection • Predictive life cycle. A more traditional approach, with the bulk of planning occurring upfront, then executing in a single pass; a sequential process. • Iterative life cycle. An approach that allows feedback for unfinished work to improve and modify that work. • Incremental life cycle. An approach that provides finished deliverables that the customer may be able to use immediately. • Agile life cycle. An approach that is both iterative and incremental to refine work items and deliver frequently.

32. Predictive Life Cycle • At the predictive end of the continuum, the plan drives the work. • As much planning as is possible is performed upfront. • Requirements are identified in as much detail as possible. • The team estimates when they can deliver which deliverables and performs comprehensive procurement activities.

33. Iterative Approach In iterative approaches, prototypes and proofs are also planned, but the outputs are intended to modify the plans created in the beginning. Earlier reviews of unfinished work help inform future project work.

34. Incremental Approach • Incremental initiatives plan to deliver successive subsets of the overall project. • Teams may plan several successive deliveries in advance or only one at a time. The deliveries inform the future project work.

35. Progressive Elaboration Progressive elaboration: The iterative process of increasing the level of detail in a project management plan as greater amounts of information and more accurate estimates become available.

36. Plan and Manage Scope Task Two

37. Enablers • Determine and prioritize requirements. (EGO 2.8.1) • Break down scope and define acceptance criteria (definition of done).(EGO 2.8.2) • Build work packages/do some work. • Monitor, reprioritize and validate scope. (EGO 2.8.3)

38. Deliverables and Tools Deliverables Tools Agile estimating Product backlog Document change requests Update Requirements document Update product backlog Update project management plan Requirements Register Work performance reports Traceability matrix

39. Scope Management Plan The Scope Management Plan is a component of the project or program management plan that describes how the scope will be defined, developed, monitored, controlled, and validated.

40. Project Requirements • Requirements include conditions or capabilities that are required to be present in a product, service, or result to satisfy an agreement or other formally imposed specification. • Requirements include the quantified and documented needs and expectations of the sponsor, customer, and other stakeholders. • These requirements need to be elicited, analyzed, and recorded in enough detail to be included in the scope baseline and to be measured once project execution begins

41. Requirements Management Plan • The Requirements Management Plan is a component of the project management plan that describes how project and product requirements will be analyzed, documented, and managed • Components of the requirements management plan can include but are not limited to: • How requirements activities will be planned, tracked, and reported; • Configuration management activities such as: how changes will be initiated; how impacts will be analyzed; how they will be traced, tracked, and reported; as well as the authorization levels required to approve these changes; • Requirements prioritization process; • Traceability structure that reflects the requirement attributes captured on the traceability matrix.

42. Elicitation Techniques/ Focus Groups • Focus groups bring together prequalified stakeholders and subject matter experts to learn about their expectations and attitudes about a proposed product, service, or result. • A Trained Moderator guides the group through an interactive discussion designed to be more conversational than a one-on-one interview.

43. Elicitation Techniques/ Questionnaires and Surveys Questionnaires and surveys are written sets of questions designed to quickly accumulate information from a large number of respondents.

44. Elicitation Techniques/ Benchmarking • Benchmarking involves comparing actual or planned products, processes, and practices to those of comparable organizations to identify best practices, generate ideas for improvement, and provide a basis for measuring performance. • The organizations compared during benchmarking can be internal or external

45. Elicitation Techniques/ Interviews • An interview is a formal or informal approach to elicit information from stakeholders by talking to them directly. It is typically performed by asking prepared and spontaneous questions and recording the responses. • Interviewsare often conducted on an individual basis between an interviewer and an interviewee, but may involve multiple interviewers and/or multiple interviewees.

46. Elicitation Techniques/ Brainstorming • Brainstormingis a technique used to generate and collect multiple ideas related to project and product requirements

47. Elicitation Techniques/ Decision Making Majority A decision that is reached with support obtained from more than 50% of the members of the group A decision that is reached whereby everyone agrees on a single course of action Unanimity Plurality Autocratic One individual takes responsibility for making the decision for the group A decision that is reached whereby the largest block in a group decides, even if a majority is not achieved.
